Le marché est divisé en deux lots indépendants : le lot 1 relatif à l’interprétariat communautaire et le lot 2 relatif à l’interprétariat en langue des signes. Les HUG souhaitent conclure des contrats-cadres avec des prestataires spécialisés afin de sécuriser, pérenniser et améliorer la réactivité des prestations. Le détail des prestations à fournir est précisé dans le Cahier des charges techniques (CCT).\n\nLot 1 — Interprétariat communautaire : L'interprétariat communautaire désigne l'interprétariat dans les deux sens d'une situation de communication entre des personnes de langues différentes (personnes ne partageant pas une langue commune), en vue d'assurer une bonne communication et un accès égal aux services ainsi qu'à l'amélioration de la qualité des soins. Le marché ne concerne pas la traduction officielle de documents.\n\nLot 2 — Interprétariat Langue des signes : Le recours à ces services d'interprètes permet d'offrir une prise en charge optimale aux patients sourds et malentendants aux HUG. Les langues concernées sont la LSF, la DGSF et la LIS. Le volume prévisionnel est de l'ordre de 25 prestations par mois, majoritairement réalisées en présentiel.
